In the African wilderness, a reality-show producer and a safari guide work together to expose a terrorist cell—and stop an explosive attack.
For wildlife television producer Pero Baltazar and expert safari guide Mbuno, filming in the African wild should have been a return to the kind of wide-open, anything goes adventure they’ve always loved—on the fringes of civilization. This time they’re filming soaring vultures in northern Kenya and giant sea crocodiles in Tanzania. But when Pero accidentally documents the tragic death of a paraglider, they’re drawn into an ever-deepening mystery—one that’s also trapped Mary Threte, the vulnerable daughter of a revered televangelist.
However, they soon discover that this isn’t a mere murder—it’s a clue to a conspiracy leading to an all-out al-Shabaab terrorist attack, set to detonate in Nairobi before an audience of hundreds of thousands. The problem is, Pero has a secret—he's actually been working as a clandestine courier for the U.S. State Department for years. If anyone finds out, Pero, Mbuno, and Mary will be the first to end up in a fanatic’s crosshairs.
An exhilarating and unusual thriller, Murder on Safari is “a gripping tale! Here is the East Africa I know so well after 40 years of filming there.” —Bertram van Munster, co-creator of CBS-TV’s The Amazing Race
